What will you do?
Take technical ownership of all aspects of hardware development and execution, from initial concept through manufacturing, integration, testing, launch and, where applicable, orbital operations.
Define and maintain the complete technical roadmap for your hardware throughout its entire lifecycle.
Determine the applicable design loads and develop efficient structural solutions, using first principles to support critical architecture decisions for primary and secondary structures.
Perform and document the analyses required to substantiate design decisions, including hand calculations, finite element analysis —FEA— and kinematic analysis.
Identify,



specify and select commercial off-the-shelf components that meet the technical and functional requirements of the design.
Incorporate manufacturing considerations from the conceptual design phase, evaluating different manufacturing methods such as machining, forming, welding, composites and other alternatives.
Proactively drive the evolution and technical maturity of the hardware, coordinating with end users, stakeholders and adjacent engineering teams to ensure that every element of the system develops consistently.
Document and communicate design assumptions, constraints, interfaces and requirements, ensuring they are understood and remain valid as the product evolves.
Coordinate with the teams responsible for related designs —including adapters, dispensers, release actuators and separation systems and subsystems— to ensure compatibility between components and interfaces.
Produce engineering drawings and technical specifications contai
